Yesterday the ladies got up close and personal with the Christmas tree before I decorated the tree in their run with tinsel!

Poor chickens have had it tough over the past few weeks, and while it hasn’t snowed to the extent that it has around the rest of the country, it’s still bitterly cold out there. I’ve been filling the drinker with hot water so it’s less likely to freeze over during the day, as well as making sure there are extra kitchen scraps and corn for the chickens to eat to keep up their body temperatures. I’ve also filled the coop with a lot more straw than usual so hopefully it’s not too cold at night. It can’t be too bad as they’re still laying eggs, although production has gone down.

I don’t think I’ll be able to get them to keep them on but I’ll do my best to get some photos of the chickens wearing their little hats…

All is well down at Hen House HQ and the ladies seem to be coping with the change in weather better than me! Egg production is still going well, which is a good sign and we’re giving them more kitchen scraps then ever to make sure they’re full up when they hit the straw at about 6pm. Photos to come…

Poor chucks. I have painted the outside of the coop with some magic paint that claims that the wood won’t rot etc and even says it’s water resistant, but that isn’t proving so. Next plan, get some roofing felt (any donations gratefully received), until then, bin bags it is…
